Brides and grooms are always trying to come up with new and interesting ideas for their wedding. With each wedding that passes, couples around the world think of new ways to make their own wedding unique and personalized.

A new and innovative idea, which I just love, is a new take on the traditional rose petals that the flower girl scatters as she walks down the aisle.

Picture this: Your super cute flower girl walks down the aisle sprinkling rose petals. However, these rose petals aren’t just any rose petals. Each petal has a lovely hand written note, one from each guest at your wedding. As you, (the bride) walk down the aisle, you pass over loving notes and messages from your nearest and dearest, each filled with a heartfelt blessing. Isn’t this idea sweet?

This idea takes a bit of planning. As you plan for your wedding and sending out your invitations, you must send out a single rose petal with each RSVP card for the guests to write their well wishes on. Another method for accomplishing this rose petal idea is to have all of your guests to come early for the ceremony to write a sweet message on a rose petal. Just make sure that guests drop their rose petal into the flower girl basket before the ceremony!

(Please note: If you are considering this idea, it is best to use fake rose petals, not real ones.)

If you don’t like the idea of having to send out petals to each guest but like the idea of customizing your rose petals, there are companies that will create personalized petals with your names, wedding date … or even an image!
